How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Essex

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Material readings establish the affected area and an appropriate dry target.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run under a plan guided by material readings.
